Union Falcor 2022

The 2022 Union Falcor loves big mountain riding and can handle some of the gnarliest terrain on the planet with ease. Would you expect anything less from the pro model of Travis Rice? No? Didn’t think so. This finely tuned freeride binding uses only the best materials in its construction and has been upgraded for the 2022 season, based on Travis’ never ending journey for the lightest, most responsive binding he can create. A thicker, longer lasting Forged Carbon Y spine, longer lasting ratchets and more supportive straps round out the upgrades to the Falcor this year, once again making it not only one of the best performing bindings on the market, but also one of the most sought after. Trust Travis.

 

Binding Type: Freeride

Flex: 7/10 (Stiff)

Board Compatibility: This Union binding comes with a Minidisk, compatible with 2×4 and channel binding mounting systems

Baseplate:

Stage 6 Duraflex CB

The Stage 6 Duraflex baseplate achieves a strength to weight ratio never before seen in snowboard bindings. Using a new manufacturing process called Microfused Injection, Union focus the injection entry point around the disk ring where you need strength the most, resulting in multiple single-piece layers that are stronger and lighter than normal binding manufacturing processes can produce. Union have used a Duraflex / Carbon blend, resulting in a baseplate that is considerably lighter and stiffer than a typical fibreglass injected nylon baseplate.

Highback: 

Falcor Forged Hybrid 2.0

A combination of Duraflex Nylon and thicker Forged Carbon in an asymmetric shape that is flexible for lateral rotation but solid for edge to edge control, giving you powerful performance that allows you to ride how you want.

Buckles: 

Magnesium S1 with Aluminium Base

Designed for those who ride hard 100+ days a year and absolutely put their bindings to the test, these new Magnesium S1 ratchets are the solution. Fully integrated springs are protected from the harsh weather that can affect the lifespan of your ratchet.

Straps: 

Exoframe 5.0 Ankle Strap + TS 4.0+ Toe Strap

The  Exoframe 5.0 strap uses newly designed tri-axial flex patters to perfectly fit your boot and provide instant response and power directly into your binding without extra, unwanted weight. Find the perfect fit with the tool-less adjustment and worry less about ill fitting straps. The TS 4.0+ toe strap is simple, lightweight, and durable that has a shorter buckle base to remove pesky pressure points. Its so comfy and responsive, you wont even realise it’s there.

Cushioning:

Fused Vaporlite + Bushings with Non-Stick EVA

An industry-first fused bushing system that sets a new standard for how a snowboard binding should function and perform. These bushings use an injection moulding process (similar to the way plastic parts are created) making them more waterproof, durable, and precise than any other EVA material on the market. This is next level binding tech that absorbs chatter like no other while maintaining the natural flex of your board.

Additional Features:

Extruded 3D Aluminium Heelcups:

This heelcup increased the stiffness of the binding, increases response, and is adjustable to help you dial in the perfect fit.

Screw Forward Lean Adjuster:

Quickly change the forward lean on your binding with a #3 Phillips screw driver.

Grade 8.8 Hardware:

Union ensure their hardware is reliable by using the strongest steel available on the market.

Tool-less strap adjust:

Whether you’re letting a friend borrow your bindings or you just need to fine tune your fit, you can adjust your straps on the fly without the need for tools.

Canting:

The footbed of this binding is angled to better align your joints and provide a more natural feeling, less fatiguing ride.
